ARecruitment (typical)
BTraining (typical)
CPromotion (typical)
DIssuing dividends
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Issuing dividends
1. Staffing covers HR-related activities: manpower planning, recruitment, selection, placement, training, appraisal, promotion, compensation.
2. Issuing dividends is a financial decision under company management, not part of staffing.
3. All other options are staffing tasks.
4. Hence (D) is the odd one out.
